Pharmacy Benefits 2026

The pharmacy landscape has changed. CAA 2026, the FTC/Express Scripts settlement, and a wave of employer-driven audits and RFPs have shifted what's possible — and what's expected. This is a working session for senior benefits leaders who are ready to act.

What you'll walk away with:

  • A clear read on what CAA 2026 and the FTC settlement actually require — and where they create new employer leverage
  • A practical framework for auditing your PBM and recovering what you're owed
  • Tools for claiming independent data access and building vendor accountability into contracts
  • A blueprint for running a transparency-driven RFP — and the employer case studies to back it up
  • An honest peer conversation about GLP-1 coverage decisions, direct-to-employer models, and what the next high-cost drug class means for your strategy

The employers in this room are wrestling with the same questions you are — and being in the room together is how the answers start to take shape. That's worth a day in New Jersey.

The Missing Layer in Employer Healthcare

Healthcare benefits usage is inherently episodic. Employees don't think in benefits categories—they think about the problem they're trying to solve.

Nearly 50% of employers are evaluating point-solution consolidation, yet many may be solving for complexity rather than the root cause of low utilization. Why do employees continue to struggle to engage despite growing investments in benefits, navigation, and digital health solutions?

Traditional benefits platforms were built on the assumption that employees would proactively seek out information. In reality, employees look for help only when a need arises—and that's often when critical information is hardest to find.

Moving Care Upstream: Putting Advanced Primary Care at the Center of Employee Health

Employers are rethinking the role they play in employee health. Rather than relying solely on the traditional healthcare system or adding more disconnected solutions, organizations are moving care upstream by putting advanced primary care at the center of an integrated benefits strategy. Join leaders from Sheetz and Marathon Health to explore how Sheetz has evolved from a single onsite clinic into a connected model that brings together primary care, mental health, lifestyle management, and more—both in-person and virtually—creating a more seamless experience for employees and building trusted relationships with care teams.

Learn how this long-term approach has strengthened employee engagement, supported chronic disease management, controlled healthcare costs, and equipped Sheetz's benefits leaders with the outcomes needed to demonstrate value and earn continued investment from leadership.
